Crafted from chemically hardened 304 stainless steel, it offers exceptional corrosion resistance and durability. Its twin ferrule compression design guarantees a leak-resistant connection without the need for tools or sealants, making it ideal for chemical, petroleum, power generation, laboratory, and medical device industries. ## Description The Horiznext compression tube fitting is made of type 304 stainless steel, and connects tubing to threaded pipe conforming to the National Pipe Thread (NPT) standard in a straight run. This coupling is for a fixed connection between tubing and pipe made of stainless steel. A twin ferrule compression fitting connects to tubing on one end for a leak-resistant seal in high-pressure, high-vacuum, and high-vibration applications, and a male NPT connector on the other end connects to threaded pipe. This fitting is made of chemically hardened type 304 stainless steel that provides higher strength and greater corrosion resistance than untreated stainless steel. It is commonly used in chemical, petroleum, power generation, laboratory, and medical device plants. Pipe and tube fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. Compression fittings do not require tools or sealants, and are useful in installations where a heat source, such as a soldering torch, is prohibited. When purchasing fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size, and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness). ## Features - Fitting connects to tubing on one end and has an NPT male connector on the other. - 1/2" outer diameter tube,1/2" NPT male thread. - Made of stainless steel 304, heavy duty, durable and corrosion resistance. - Maximum working pressure of 20000 psi. - Temperature range from -212 to +1472 degrees ℉ ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07S37M5W8 | | ASIN | B07S37M5W8 | | Brand Name | Horiznext | | Color | Silver | | Connector Type | Coupling | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (133) | | Customer reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (133) | | Date First Available | 12 June 2019 | | Exterior Finish | Stainless Steel | | Item Weight | 0.08 Kilograms | | Item model number | 38485 | | Manufacturer | Horiznext | | Manufacturer | Horiznext | | Manufacturer Part Number | 38485 | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Number | 38485 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Package Dimensions | 6.4 x 5.59 x 2.39 cm; 82 g | | Size | NPT1/2-1/2" O.D. | | Thread Size | 0.5 inch | | Thread Type | NPT | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Horiznext - **Colour:** Silver - **Connector type:** Coupling - **Material:** Stainless Steel - **Size:** NPT1/2-1/2" O.D. ## Images ![Stainless Steel Male Thread Compression Fitting NPT1/2-1/2" O.D. 38485 1 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51RJTjoAquL.jpg) ![Stainless Steel Male Thread Compression Fitting NPT1/2-1/2" O.D. 38485 1 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61RcS23ZCrL.jpg) ![Stainless Steel Male Thread Compression Fitting NPT1/2-1/2" O.D. 38485 1 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61L7PGhdizL.jpg) ![Stainless Steel Male Thread Compression Fitting NPT1/2-1/2" O.D. 38485 1 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6158XCQohXL.jpg) ![Stainless Steel Male Thread Compression Fitting NPT1/2-1/2" O.D. 38485 1 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61JAgovWnZL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: My ss tubing measures 0.59" od, will this fit?** A: No, the O.D. is too big. **Q: Will this work with 1/2" galvanized pipe?** A: Nope! A "1/2 inch galvanized pipe" is measured by the inside diameter. The OD (Outside Diameter) of a galvanized "1/2" inch pipe is about 0.840 inches, so NOPE! "1/2 inch" CPVC and 1/2 inch copper is about 0.625 (5/8). This is for a 0.500 (1/2) OD tube which has usually got a 7/16 ID. Like a tub chrome plated brass supply tube. **Q: Can you use with PEX?** A: I don't think so. It's for copper or steel tube. **Q: Can you use this on steel braided hose?** A: only for metal pipe ## Frequently Bought Together - Horiznext Stainless Steel 304 Compression Fitting to connect 1/2 inch OD tube x 1/2 NPT Male thread Coupler, for brass copper stainless steel tubing - Vigorous Wort Chiller, 1/2" x 50 Ft Food Grade 304 Stainless Steel Coil, Water Chiller for Ice Bath Beer Brewing Tubing Coil, Stainless Steel Immersion Chiller - DERNORD 1/2" Barbed Hose x 1/2" NPT Female - Home Brew Fitting 304 Stainless Steel Pack of 2 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/349974910-stainless-steel-male-thread-compression-fitting-npt1-2-1-2](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/349974910-stainless-steel-male-thread-compression-fitting-npt1-2-1-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-07-04*
